    Guys lets not do this. Both are not correct. Indonesians are plenty successful just like anyone else when given the same opportunities. I would also not call South Asia as "marginal achievement" when you put everything in context. India especially once it getting its act together is...

    Well English is not so prevalent in Indonesia (taught at school from young age etc)...this gives a big leg up to South Asia (esp educated layer) to integrate with English speaking countries in general. Dutch speaking world is not that big now (compared to English) and also Indonesia didn't...
